The room was comfortable and clean with updated décor. The staff was friendly and helpful. The Lounge had a nice atmosphere and the service was great! We used a promotional coupon and were pleasantly surprised with the level of the accommodations.

Stayed here on the 14th of Sept for a conference. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Restaurant/Bar had good food and service was very good. Sat outside but it was very noisy with the traffic. Rooms were clean not real big, bathroom was pretty small, beds were great. Had a business section which was good because I didn't bring a laptop. Located next to the capital so it was a nice location., Free parking which you don't always get. No breakfast, which is always a plus so that was a negative. Had a free paper at the door in the morning which is a nice amenity. Overall had a good experience and would stay there again.

This is a big city hotel with many amenities. One of the best is ample, free parking. It overlooks I-94, so there is some road noise. Also, there was an unusual amount of motorcycle noise late at night. However, our trusty white noise machine, which travels with us everywhere, did a good job of masking most of it. What it did not mask was the smoke alarm start beeping at 2:30 AM giving the low battery warning. Smoke alarms must be designed to do this in the middle of the night. We had to remove the entire smoke alarm from the ceiling to remove the battery. Even with the battery out it still kept beeping - at least for awhile. How is this possible? We wrapped it in a towel and closed it in the bathroom. So they need to keep an eye on the life of their smoke alarm batteries. Otherwise things were fine - though there was that dreaded duvet with no thin blanket alternative. There is no complimentary breakfast, but there are many great breakfast places nearby.

Room Tip: Face away from I-94 (and possibly bring a 9 volt battery).

If you are staying because of the location to the State Capital, PERFECT hotel! But that's about it.

Although they do have free parking the hotel it pretty rundown and you are definitely paying for location, location, location...the doors to the rooms are like narrow closet doors with 20 coats of paint over them...bathroom doors are the same and are hard to close because of so much paint. King room was large but felt like I was in a India or Middle East with all the fabric in the room from the curtains to the bed skirt. Bed was on the hard side. It met our basic needs of sleeping as we left as soon as we checked in an didn't return until 11pm, but pretty much a basic 2 star hotel with a bar/grill attached.

close to childrens museum and quick drive to Como park was great (that is why we chose this location) but really wish breakfast was included (without an additional cost), more attention to all details of cleanliness is required (drawers)

The service was great, the room was very nice and I had a great view. The restaurant was ok, the food was average and the prices were also about average, but it was convenient. The shuttle service was a major plus!
